Chapter 645
My Villains Episode 645
73. Army of Evil God(13)
Iopiya was the most important agent in the exploration of the underworld in the royal capital. Using the soul shaman's unique sense of inspiration, he used the role of a compass that pointed to the dimensional core, so to speak, to find the soul of a patient suffering from servant disease..
Of course, just because he wasn't there didn't mean he couldn't escape the other side of the world. Didn't he escape from the first world he entered through the carriage mechanic's son without Iopiya? Of course, the boy faced the tragedy of being reduced to ashes..
And after experiencing it several times, I learned that contacting the soul that acts as a dimensional core and activating a dimensional seal is the correct answer - or a strategy for conquering the secret world that is close to the correct answer..
In other words, as long as you find the dimensional core, everything will be fine. It would be quite difficult since I don't have a high-performance compass called Eopiya, but it wasn't impossible..
The reason I decided to catch the black fairy in a situation like this was because I saw a clue there. These guys seemed to get along..
It happened a few days ago when I killed the black fairy spider trainer. For the first time in a long time, I lifted all camouflage and seals and went wild, even using blood magic, and instantly replaced the spider pack that the dark elf had carefully cultivated..
At the end, he found the spider trainer hiding in a deep horn-shaped spider web, and immediately threw a javelin, piercing his chest..
The reason I didn't have mercy in my hands... … . Well, I would say it’s because of the black fairy’s unique and firm gender role..
Black fairies are divided into four classes according to the positions they hold. I don't know the exact names, but I roughly remember that they were priests, warriors, wizards, and others in that order..
The reason I knew about this, even though I had little interest in the background or settings of the Dark World, was because the Black Fairy's rank was so famous among gamers. As a laughing stock.
That's right, aren't the priests and warriors, who are the most idiotic, occupying the highest tiers in that order? Even if we assume that wizards are of the noble class, it was also a point of laughter that the infamous black fairy assassins were completely treated as lower class people..
However, the black fairies added a touch of bizarre sexism to this ridiculous class system..
In the case of men, except for a very small number who are chosen by the evil spirit 'Bilari' to become priests, all men are relegated to the lower class, such as ordinary soldiers or workers..
However, it was not true that the very few who became priests were able to command the authority of the highest class..
This was because he could barely engage in outside activities to please the lewd and capricious goddess, and even the slightest mistake could cost him his life. Even if you didn't make any special mistakes, you would lose your favor as you got older and your beauty faded or your stamina diminished, which meant death. The jealous goddess never spared anyone who left her embrace, voluntarily or otherwise..
Thanks to these circumstances, the only true noble classes were warriors and wizards, a position only available to women. The reason was that warriors and wizards were extremely dangerous positions, so they could not be entrusted to men who were likely to be chosen by Villari at any time..
So, someone might ask why most black fairy assassins and ordinary soldiers are men. We decided to call this ‘inevitable social structural contradiction.’.
Well, in the dark fairy society, where there is a severe atmosphere of male superiority over male superiority, there would be no one left foolish enough to ask such questions..
And spider trainers, although I don't know the exact reason, were classified as priests in the black fairy society. In other words, it is a job that only men engage in..
That's why I threw a javelin at him as soon as I found him. Because I decided it had no value other than using my experience..
As a black fairy chosen by the goddess, the spider trainer was surprisingly beautiful despite her heterogeneity, but it was not enough to shake my strong sexual orientation..
And as I was about to kill the dying man, I was startled. Because he begged for his life. Speaking human language!
No, strictly speaking, it is not a human language. Because they spoke Spachtian. Spakht, the official language of the ancient empire, was used not only among humans but also among all different races, including fairies, dragons, beastmen, and naga..
It seems something mysterious and amazing because it is an ancient language, but it was used on a daily basis until only the 7th or 8th century. It had a profound influence on the Milanese and Ghelan languages, and even in modern times, it is treated as a language of culture among nobles and scholars, so it is not that far from reality..
Crucially, it was something I knew too..
As Poynix, who is a master of the duchy, I have also learned some Spakht language. Of course, I'm not good at listening and speaking because I mainly learned reading and writing, but I think I can do simple communication..
But the spider trainer passed away before I could even stutter and attempt a conversation. There was no time to do anything. In fact, it would be useful to hold on for even a minute or two with the javelin stuck in the middle of the chest. This is especially true considering that black fairies are much lighter and more agile than humans, but are a much more fragile race..
It's a shame that I couldn't have a proper conversation with him, but just confirming that there was a possibility of communicating with the black fairy was an achievement in its own way..
That is why the primary goal was to capture and interrogate the black fairy. It looks like he is acting as a servant of the Dark Knight, and he seems to be familiar with this side world, so he may be able to obtain useful information..
In this context, the plan was to trace the direction in which the sniper who had fired a strange crossbow in the darkness had fled - that is, starting from the foot of the mountain to the north of the garrison..
“Ohan, muah rujul, ulinkum-”
Wizard Doris had doubts about my brief explanation, but obediently began to recite the spell. He seemed to think that it was not his responsibility to make decisions, but I would say it is an attitude that all wizards should emulate..
He muttered for a moment while holding the earring-type magic tool he had borrowed from Count Aeneas..
Yes.
A blue curtain appeared in front of Doris' eyes as it slowly opened..
‘Even though his magical power was sealed with the elixir of 'Mysterious Man' Raph, he could feel the subtle vibrations that came from it. As if Doris' worries weren't for nothing, the magic wave was really clear..
Of course, it was natural that such a big wave would be emitted. Clairvoyance is considered to be almost the highest level spell in the detection chain..
Although it doesn't allow you to see hundreds of kilometers away like its grand name suggests, it is a very useful spell because it has several side effects..
It seems similar to the general 'Far View' spell in that it illuminates a distant place, but in terms of the quality of information, it is literally the difference between heaven and earth. While ordinary farsightedness merely illuminates distant places, clairvoyance spells combine magical power, presence, and life detection to allow the caster to select and observe noteworthy scenes..
Of course, it would be impossible to scan a 10-kilometer radius like in Middle-Earth. Considering the unreliable magical power density of the other world, even if the search range were only half that much, it would have been a blessing..
“Uh, wow. Wow…….”
“Hey, Doris? You need to explain what you see. This is not the time to experience ordering..”
Doris, who seemed to have come to her senses belatedly and was appreciating the magical vision with a blank expression, began the briefing in a half-hearted manner..
“Sorry, actually, it's my second time using this and I'm getting used to it - uh, I can see it, I can see it! To the east, or rather, to the southeast, about 800 meters, beyond the ridge… … Oh, it's a goblin. About a dozen of them - Ugh, are they really mating as a group??”
“How do I know that? And Doris, I told you there was no need for greenskins..”
“Oh, that's right. That's right. Black Fairy, I need to find the Black Fairy.…….”
He repeated this repeatedly as if hypnotizing himself, and as if responding to this, the screen in front of his eyes began to blink in succession..
“Orc, Orc, Goblin, Orc-”
Doris' strange appearance must have caught their attention, as several members of the special unit gathered nearby. As I briefly explained the situation to them, Doris turned pale and started groping herself..
“Why are you doing this all of a sudden? What are you uncomfortable with??”
“Oh, come on, teacher. Here in the pouch, I need a crystal ball.…….”
Have you already run out of mana?.
Doris, who was handed an egg-sized crystal ball, put it on her mouth as if she were using a respirator and took a deep breath. A whitish stream of air was sucked into his nose and mouth, and he continued his search through clairvoyance with a much more relaxed face..
“……Ugh?”
“Why again this time??”
“Uh, I can't see anything..”
“I can't see anything?”
“Yes, it’s all just grass… … . Oh, why is it like this? There is no way a clairvoyant would illuminate a place like this..”
Feeling an unknown intuition, I hurriedly asked the question again..
“What is the direction??”
“yes? Ah, the direction is…….”
Doris struggled for a moment, waved her hand in the air, and pointed somewhere to the east..
“What about the distance??”
“Um, I think it's about 1.5 kilometers.-”
He narrowed his eyes and, without gauging the distance, opened his mouth and made a loud noise..
“Huh? It moves.”
“Moving? What is it?”
“Clairvoyant. Moving along the landscape. Uh, where is this??”
Doris waved her hand in the air as if trying to get her bearings again, then pointed at herself..
“……What did Doris say??”
“No, not me, this one..”
“yes?”
“Well, the point of view of the clairvoyant is coming this way. Very fast.”
As the story progressed to that point, the people gathered nearby and listening seemed to realize what was going on even before I said anything..
“This will be over sooner than you think..”
I smiled and looked around. The members, starting with Simos, silently drew their weapons..
